BOCA RATON, Fla. (March 12, 2025) - Georgian Court Women's Lacrosse finished up their trip to Florida with a tall task, taking on the No. 6 team in the country, Lynn. The Fighting Knights' defense shined, limiting GCU to just four goals in a 12-4 Lynn victory.

How it Happened
• While Georgian Court won the draw control battle, 12-8, Lynn still dominated in possession.
• That's in part to 30 GCU turnovers. Lynn lost the ball just 13 times.
• The Knights totaled 36 shots, 28 on goal. The Lions didn't get their 10th shot until the fourth quarter and finished with 11, nine on net.
• Cards weren't a factor. Each team was called for two. GCU though did cash on with two power play goals.
• Georgian Court didn't find much success on free-position shots. They were 0-2 while Lynn was 2-4.
1st Quarter

• Moradian made five saves in the frame.
2nd Quarter

• They scored three more times in the final 3:06, including a goal with 14 seconds left and led 9-0 at the half.
3rd Quarter
• Lynn brought the lead to 10-0 before the Lions finally got on the board.
• At the 7:27 mark in the third Nena Menard scored. GCU earned a free-position shot, but pulled out, ran an offensive play and Menard scored.
